Finally, my beauty from Halfeye. It is cool to me that the point came from Utah.

Here's the arrow I made for Danzn Bar. I made a wall hanger arrow, salvaged from an arrow I cut too short because I measured wrong  :P, but at 28 1/8" from valley of the nock to base of the arrowhead it might work as a working arrow if you had a shorter draw length. It is a 50-55 spined POC shaft with three coats of Golden Oak stain and three coats of Satin Spar Urethane. Self nock, I used some B-55 Polyester bowstring material for binding the feathers to the shaft in the barber pole style that I'm fond of. This time however, I put Titebond Liquid Hide glue under the feathers instead of leaving them unglued. Not sure how I feel about the Liquid Hide glue. The arrowhead is not that primitive, I started making trade points but my co-workers insist I have to work harden them to make them work and with my little knowledge of it, I decided to put the best arrowhead that I had on it. It is not that sharp, but nevertheless I will duct tape the edges so that the chances of cutting one's self will be lessened when they opened the package.

They were Truflight full length feathers, so they're from domestic turkeys.

Here is the arrow I rec'd from oldhippy. It's been a couple weeks and I should have gotten pics up earlier but I've been busy, tired, and mostly lazy. ;D

Nice hunting arrow made from hill cane.
I found many years ago that it is much easier and more rewarding working with those that don't know anything than those that know it all.

A lot of nice arrows going out.
 I'll get a list of who shipped & who received.
I see Oldhippy didn't lose his touch at arrow making.

I made one for Mullet. It figures I'd draw a moderator on my first go round. After asking him what he'd like, he said he's never received a fishing arrow in the trade. That will soon change. I got it packed up tonight and then realized I didn't sign it or take pics. It turned out nice so I was in a hurry to get it in the mail. I'll tear into it and repack in the morning. Should be able to post a pic or two as well.
The arrow(s) I am to receive are on the way I've been told, it should be here any time now. I was told one was a secret design so I'm intrigued.
I have nothing but scorn for all weird ideas other than my own.

Dakotakid,
I didn't aim to make you think they was sent yet.
I did finish up last night and packed them for shipment, and will have them to the post office today.
Here's a little sample pic.

Sure wish I could print like that! Especially on curved surfaces.
